Actually, the namebrand "Battery Tender" charges the battery as needed and goes into "storage" mode, when charging is complete; thus, one can leave it connected at all times. See the below picture and notice the lower "storage" light is lit.
Mine has been connected continuously since November, 2008, except when I'm riding the bike! Battery is still in excellent condition.
